Sample Questions

Question 1
On a MODU main diesel engine, what is the primary purpose of fuel injection timing?
To set lube-oil pressure delivered to the main bearings
To set the crank angle at which fuel begins to burn so combustion peaks shortly after top dead center
To regulate the volume of scavenge air delivered to the cylinder
To control jacket-water outlet temperature
Question 2
A MODU diesel will not roll on starting air even though bottle pressure is normal and the air-start distributor appears to work. The most likely cause is that the:
Cooling-water expansion tank is low
Turning (jacking) gear is still engaged
Fuel viscosity is too high for the day-tank heater setting
Crankcase oil level is slightly above the high mark
Question 3
Crankcase explosion relief valves on a large diesel are designed to:
Vent continuously so the crankcase is held under vacuum in normal running
Relieve the pressure rise of a primary explosion and then reseat quickly so fresh air is not drawn back in
Admit outside air to cool an overheating bearing
Return crankcase oil to the sump tank when the level runs high
Question 4
What is the chief function of scavenging in a two-stroke-cycle diesel?
To remove burned gases and replace them with fresh air
To cool the injector tip between firings
To circulate lube oil to the wrist pin
To inject fuel at the correct time
Question 5
A marine diesel governor is best described as a device that:
Limits maximum cylinder firing pressure by design only
Times exhaust-valve opening
Automatically adjusts fuel rack position to hold set speed under changing load
Controls jacket cooling-water temperature
